I feel quite nervous posting this because I know I said I wouldn't get another. But I did. Here's what happened.
I felt my tiger barbs weren't happy in the 95L. They weren't active and would bicker. They would just stay in the same spot so I started panicking that maybe it wasn't big enough for them. I contacted Steve who took 5 of my 11 I had to begin with and also took the 6 cherry barbs. He said the cherry barbs were being picked on so we came to a deal. He took the 6 tigers and gave me back the cherries (Talk about musical fish) Cherry barbs are fantastic, peaceful community fish I love them.
Anyway, the 4 guppies, 1 platy, 6 cherry barbs and the 15 guppy fry are having a great time in the 95L. The guppy fry will leave once they start colouring up. This left my 64L empty. I wanted more endlers. I went to the LFS where I get my live food from. The one where I saw the white fighter in the vase. The vases were empty I was looking around for endlers and that's when I saw him. He was pale lilac, his body was rainbow colours, it would change in the light, his head was a coppery/orange colour, his fins baby blue, his tail white and pink-I have never seen this colour combo before. My little girl was with me and she just started getting excited and said I love him, he's like rusty, I want him. So I will blame her for giving in
Obviously he is just settling into the 64L, these are the only pics I could get since he doesn't know me yet.
These I took in the car with my phone to show the multi-coloured body. Rubbish pics!
His head almost looks tortoiseshell
In the tank-he's not used to me yet and he turned to look at me as I was edging the camera forward lol
Then he had enough and was off!
Because he's a mixture of colours and such a weird half and half body I don't know what to call him. "Oddball" springs to mind!
